Phone number ☎️ 02478190422 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance and probable scam originating from Coventry area, frequently targeting landlines despite the recipient being on the Telephone Preference Service. Callers typically claim to represent well-known retailers like Tesco or Morrisons, offering fake vouchers or prizes while quoting accurate personal details including name and address. The dialogue is often disjointed with strong or foreign accents, includes suspicious questions about age, marital status, or preferences, and abruptly ends or involves silence and hang-ups. Multiple users have detected no message left, experienced repeated silent calls, and found the number invalid when attempting to return calls. Several victims have taken precautions including reporting to fraud authorities and blocking the number. It is strongly advised to avoid engagement and never disclose personal information.

Got a call from a woman with an American accent, asking for my husband. She claimed she was from EON and mentioned our name and address. She said we'd won a Tesco voucher. Foolishly, I answered some questions about our energy provider. Since then, I've had to cancel all our bank cards. I've also reported it to actionfraud.police.uk, signed up with CIFAS, checked our credit, and contacted British Gas. Definitely a real eye-opener for me!

Got a call around half past one today from a woman with a really thick accent who kept saying I was a loyal Tesco customer. The call seemed to lag a bit, like it was coming from abroad. I ended up hanging up because I just couldn’t make out what she was saying properly.

I've had this number ringing my landline pretty much every day this week, and a couple of times it's even called twice in one day. Luckily, my Call Guardian has blocked it each time, but since they never leave a message, I'm guessing it's either a scam or some telemarketer, which is annoying given I'm on the TPS list.

I've experienced something quite similar recently. I received a message claiming I'd won a £50 Tesco voucher and was asked what colour I preferred. It instantly rang alarm bells for me, and I mentioned that it seemed rather dubious. The sender insisted that their sponsors would reach out to me shortly!

I noticed a couple of missed calls on my home phone in the last few days. So, I did the 1471 trick and was surprised to find an actual number, but decided not to ring back, thinking it was probably some sort of scam. Just now, they rang again and I picked up. There was a weird silence for a bit, then when I asked who it was, a lady with a foreign accent said “good evening” before hanging up. Such a hassle. We’re on the TPS list, so surely this has to be against the rules.

Received a couple of phone calls from this number today. When I picked up the first time, all I could hear was some rustling and random noises in the background, before they abruptly cut off. I opted not to respond to the second call, as they didn't bother leaving a voicemail. I’ve got a feeling they’re only attempting their little scam when a woman picks up.

I received a rather unexpected phone call informing me that I had won a £50 voucher for Tesco. They asked me about my preferred colour for wrapping purposes. The caller appeared to have a foreign accent, possibly Caribbean, and surprisingly seemed to know both my name and address. He stated, "I’ve called your BT line, is that right?" which I confirmed. When I inquired about his name, he cheerfully replied with "Gary Crab." Quite the peculiar exchange, I must say!

Received three calls from this number on my home phone today, which is equipped with a BT call blocker. Honestly, the best £50 we've ever invested! They refused to provide their name when asked, so they got instantly blocked. I highly recommend getting a call-blocking phone and avoid sharing any personal details with anyone. If a dodgy caller manages to get through and starts their pitch, I typically ask, "Who provided you with my number?" Most of the time, they hang up right away. Alternatively, I might say, "We never conduct business with unknown callers, goodbye." Give it a whirl!

I received a peculiar phone call declaring that I’d won £50 worth of Tesco vouchers. They asked me about my favourite colour for the wrapping, but the caller's accent was quite thick and foreign. When he inquired if I was on my BT line, I decided enough was enough and hung up. Definitely dodging this number from now on! What a right pain...

Received a rather peculiar phone call earlier claiming I’d won £50 worth of Tesco vouchers. They asked about my favourite colour, allegedly to wrap it up nicely. The caller had a distinct accent. They even stated, “I have phoned your line, is this correct?” At which point, I decided to cut the conversation short and hang up. I’ll definitely be steering clear of this number moving forward.

I hardly ever receive calls on my landline these days. So, when an unfamiliar number pops up, I pick up the receiver and say 'hello,' then just sit back and wait for a reply. This time, though, there was complete silence, but I could make out some faint rustling sounds in the background. After about 15 seconds of this strange nothingness, the caller decided to hang up.

I received a phone call claiming I'd won £50 worth of Morrisons vouchers. They asked me to verify my address and then inquired about my age. Instinctively, I felt it reeked of a scam.

I received a call from this number earlier today. The person on the line had a foreign accent - I’m not quite sure which country they hailed from, but they claimed to be representing BT. They posed a barrage of odd questions, and for reasons I can't quite fathom, I answered them, particularly as I'm currently engaged with BT. However, upon reflection, it dawned on me that the whole conversation felt a touch off and not entirely authentic.

I received a call from what claimed to be Morrisons, expressing gratitude for my shopping loyalty from last year. When I mentioned I didn’t actually frequent their stores, they quickly pivoted to say they were also representing Tesco. They informed me I had supposedly won a £50 voucher and a bottle of wine, asking if I preferred it red or white! Then the questioning got weird-they inquired about the brand of my washing machine, my broadband provider, and whether they’d reached me on a landline. They even had my correct name. In a moment of weakness, I ended up answering their queries. Now I’m left pondering what personal information I might have inadvertently shared. Luckily, they didn’t probe into maiden names, pet names, or my first school. I can’t believe I fell for it!
